Its been said that the state could see over $1.3 billion in tax money from medical marijuana alone... should we make a push for legalization to get us out of this economic crisis ?

  I think legalizing marijuana for the right purposes such as medicinal reasons is a good idea! And especially if the state could get billions of dollars in tax money for it then I say YES on legalizing it!

  100% yes...To me this is a no brainer. With how much the state is in debt, this is def something to look at. I don't think there is anything else that can help out as quick as legalizing marijuana. I think we all know it will be legalized one day, weather it be for medical use or not. Why not do it now, when we need it the most?

  I love hearing from smart people. With the right rules and regulations in place. This can be a win in so many ways.

  If alchohol and cigarettes are legal, they ought to legalize marijuana, but for now at least it should be legal for medicinal purposes. (not that it is exactly difficult to get a card)

  If it's all about money, legalize gambling and prostitution while you are at it. The USA will be a money making machine and we can pay of the deficit in no time!

  I agree with almost everyone that commented. Marijuana should definitely be legalized. Especially because we're in such an economic crisis. But I believe that money shouldn't be the only reason that we legalize it. If the state has already made it ok for those with a medical need to use marijuana then they obviously already believe that it's safe and an ok thing to have around. But the tax revenue wouldn't really hurt either. Not to mention all the hemp that could potentially be produced, hemp is a very durable material that could have a lot of uses.
